RHVoice uses the following free software components:
- Russian speech database and Russian language description forFestival by Nickolay V. Shmyrev (https://developer.berlios.de/projects/festlang)The phoneset and almost all of the main lts rules are used as is,but I've made changes in other parts, either to simplify conversionto the flite format, or to add new features, or just to understandhow it all works.
- The voices have been trained with The HMM-based Speech SynthesisSystem (HTS) (http://hts.sp.nitech.ac.jp)
- The hts_engine API is used for runtime speech generation(http://hts-engine.sourceforge.net/)
- The C implementation of the Russian text analyzer uses Flite(http://www.speech.cs.cmu.edu/flite)I used the flite's implementation of English language support as anexample, some functions were used as a starting point.
- the stress information for the stress dictionary has been extractedfrom the test dictionary in the RuLex package by Igor B. Poretsky(http://poretsky.homelinux.net/packages/)
- GNU libunistring is used for working with unicode text(http://www.gnu.org/software/libunistring/)
- The sonic library by Bill Cox is used for generation of fast speech(git://vinuxproject.org/sonic)
- The expat XML parser is used to implement SSML support(http://expat.sourceforge.net)
- the PCRE library (version 8.10 or newer) is used for regular expressions support inpronunciation dictionaries (http://pcre.org)
- libsox is used for some post-processing tasks(http://sox.sourceforge.net)The latest release can be found at http://github.com/Olga-Yakovleva/RHVoice/downloadsYou can also use git to get the development code.The git repository address is git://github.com/Olga-Yakovleva/RHVoice.git
